    BNY Mellon Pennsylvania Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund

    Overview

    Why invest in this Fund?

    The fund seeks as high a level of income exempt from federal and Pennsylvania state income taxes as is consistent with the preservation of capital.

    To pursue its goal, the fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in municipal bonds, the interest from which is exempt from federal and Pennsylvania state personal income taxes. The fund also may invest in municipal bonds that are exempt from federal income taxes, but not Pennsylvania personal income taxes, and in taxable bonds.

    The fund's investments in municipal and taxable bonds must be of investment grade (i.e. Baa/BBB or higher) quality at the time of purchase or, if unrated, deemed of comparable quality by the investment adviser. Generally, the fund’s average effective portfolio maturity will be between three and ten years and the average effective duration of the fund’s portfolio will not exceed eight years. The fund may invest in individual municipal and taxable bonds of any maturity or duration.

    In calculating average effective portfolio maturity and average effective portfolio duration, the fund may treat a security that can be repurchased by its issuer on an earlier date (known as a "call date") as maturing on the call date rather than on its stated maturity date.

          Main Risks

          The fund is subject generally to interest rate, credit, liquidity, call, and market risks, to varying degrees, all of which are more fully described in the fund's prospectus.
          Generally, all other factors being equal, bond prices are inversely related to interest-rate changes and rate increases can cause price declines.
          Investing primarily in a single state may make the fund's portfolio securities more sensitive to risks specific to the state.
          Please refer to the prospectus for a more complete discussion of the fund's main risks.
